Feel free to point out where I'm off

You're making the assumption that he considers Dylan Roof a social conservative because he's white.

Far less offensive than the various forms of Uncle Tom and House such n such that black people like Clarence Thomas were subjected to. But its ok when leftists do it, so...

Quote:I'm so glad my family doesn't associate with people that liken gay marriage to 9/11. I'd keep my son FAR away from such an individual.


The fact is, people are becoming more open minded and accepting. The country is evolving, people are evolving. It's happening, and will continue to happen, whether you like it or not. If some want to sulk in their own pool of misery, that's their prerogative. The rest of society is moving on.
 

The tragedy of the event was obviously much greater with 9/11 in that many lives were lost, this country has not been the same since 9/11, however. 

 

The same will come from this.

Be patient, the lawsuits are coming.

Quote:The big question now remaining is: Will this ruling mark the beginning of the end of the "Wall of Separation" that has existed between church and state in America for the past 239 years? how can we expect gay rights groups and the media to respect the teachings of religious denominations and not demand marriage equality from the church's?



This is going to be an UGLY legal battle up ahead.


Lol what

Divorce lawyers must be pleased with this ruling, they just had their client base increased.

Same sex marriage equals same sex divorce.

That'll be an interesting dynamic to watch. I suspect that early on, divorce rates will be lower as compared to the norm, as many of the couples being married (or most?) have been together for years and years already, living as a married couple but without state recognition. For them, this will be merely a formality before they go back to living their everyday lives.

 

As time goes by, I'd be surprised if the divorce rate among same-sex couples didn't creep up towards the 40-50% mark of heterosexual couples (per the American Psychological Association) that end their marriages in divorce.

Quote:I can't speak for Ted Cruz but I believe his mindset is along the line of how I feel.

 

There's no dispute that 9/11 was tragic beyond any words that can be used.   The mental anguish of 9/11 still exists for me and that will almost certainly be the case as long as I'm alive.   Yet,  because of what transpired in the 24 hours last Thursday and Friday,   there's a school of thought by many that the worst by far is yet to come in this country.   Especially,  when combining this with other decisions,  policies,  and the overall direction of the United States.   

 

I realize that many,  if not most people reading this strongly disagree with this mindset.   I doubt you will be convinced in the short term regardless of what anyone says.   But it reinforces why I strongly believe that Ted Cruz or someone like him is the only hope for the United States of America.   
 

Count me in as one that happens to agree politically (for the most part) with you.  I think that you and I have lived long enough and seen enough where we both see the direction and course of this country, and at this point in time it's not good.  I suspect that most that post in these forums are probably younger, and don't have the life experiences as well as the education that you and I have.

Quote:I've never even seen a gay couple holding hands and kissing in public, most gay people I know are pretty private about their affection.

Now on tv and movies that where your kids going to be exposed to it.


If you ever made it out this way I think you'd change that viewpoint.

Yeah, perspective.  It's a heck of a thing.

Yea, it's tough understanding discrimination when you are a straight white male in America, innit?

I couldn't agree more with flsprtsgod.  The nasty part of politics is going to come out, and it's going to be the left that brings it on.

 

In the past presidential election, Herman Cain was eliminated partly because he was often called an "Uncle Tom".  He was "attacked" by liberals not because of his policies or his track record, he was attacked because of his race.  Dirt was dug up regarding his past, and he was forced to defend himself against un-true claims against him.

 

Look at what is said regarding Ben Carson or Allen West. by liberal "media" outlets.  They are attacked not because of their policies or belief, it's solely because they happen to be conservative black people.

Like every presidential candidate ever? Bush got slammed over his National guard service, John Kerry got swift boated and Obama faced the whole Muslim/US birth thing. And those are just the ones I can remember of the top of my head.

Yeah, because understanding the history of this country certainly prevents white guys from knowing anything about discrimination and how it impacted this country from the very beginning.  I know you've got little interest in the history of this country.  You've made that abundantly clear.  But, to say what you did here?  That's pretty bigoted.

What is the common denominator regrading all of this?  I'll give you a bit of a hint.  How much was actually true and false?  Next question, how many of these issues actually came out of a campaign?
